    It is quite common - read these previous posts too. There are some replies from Meg that help explain it.

    hello Paul,

    l have been getting twitches for almost 3 years now, i think what really started it off was a traumatic experience, and its never really gone since. although they are very scary sometimes, the doc has reassured me that twitching is nothing to worry about,

    Hi paul, I get them too, didn't realise they were linked to panic, it seems everything is linked to panic!

    Re: Muscle Twitches

    I get muscle twitches quite often... sometimes in arms, sometimes in legs, sometimes shoulders.

    claire1983phillips - I also get that... sometimes my whole arm will go number for ages, like up to two hours. The last time it happened, i ended up in A&E, but then my face and leg also went numb and tingly, so they told me it was panic. But it's so distressing, as it's quite a strong feeling isn't it. Feel free to send me a private message.

    I get muscle twitches when I am anxious. Especially my hands.

    Re: Muscle Twitches

    claire...the only way to stop taking your blood pressure is to stop taking your blood pressure. i used to check mine dozens of times a day. now maybe once or twice a week.

    anxiety feeds off of reassurance. the more you give it, the more it wants. you have to just set limits.

    i ignored my muscle twitches, and they went away. i told myself i will not take my blood pressure until bedtime. then 2 days. then 3.

    break the cycle of reassurance and it WILL get better!!
